pecifloatlon of Letters Patent.

Patented Aug. 20, 1912.

Application filed January 18, 1912. Serial No. 671,412.

To all whom it may concern:

Beit known that I, HENRYC HARRILD, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Spokane, in the county of Spokane and State of Washington, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dowels,

of which the following is a specification.

In the drawmg Figure 1 is a side view of i the dowel ready for use, and Fig. 2 is a 20 similar view of the dowel applied for use.

In the'accompanying illustration I present a form of dowel adapted for use in the making of smallframes or joints. In this construction, the dowel has a center piece 2 which projects beyond the side spurs 1, so that a hammer can be used to strike upon the center piece and drive the dowel without injury to the sharp points or spurs on opposite sides of the said center piece.

I claim:

A dowel split from its end forming side I spurs and a central portion which projects at its end beyond the ends of the side spurs.

HENRY, HARRILD.
